Question the thread of emacs


I want to ask something

I am using devuan and I want to ask some questions about
gnu emacs

when I build emacs on my devuan distro
Code:
./autogen.sh
./configure \ 
  --without-pop \
  --with-mailutils \
  --with-xwidgets \
  --with-cairo \
  --without-compress-install \
  --with-native-compilation \
  --with-json \
  --with-dbus \
  --with-gif \
  --with-jpeg \
  --with-png \
  --with-rsvg \
  --with-tiff \
  --with-webp \
  --with-gpm \
  --without-libsystemd \
  --with-modules \
  --with-harfbuzz \
  build_alias=x86_64-linux-gnu \
  host_alias=x86_64-linux-gnu
will use two shortcuts . emacsclient and emacs in /usr/local/share/applications .

where i will put init.el file ?

which ~/.emacs.d or ~/.config/emacs or ~/.config/emacs.d ?

I want one init.el what using both instances for emacs for now ..

I will admit, when I first looked at emacs, ran back to vim.

But I found a link that might help: https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/m...Init-File.html
